It was as the sun  was setting on a calm evening. The fire was slowly dying but little did we know that the end of the world was happening.  Sam(Weapon expert), Liz(ex-military), Alice(Doctor), Ben(Builder)

~Sam

"Hey, Ben can you go get some more fire wood?" I asked. I'm the oldest one here but not by much.

"Sure," He said, getting up to get some fire wood.  I looked at Liz, who was watching the fire.

"Liz," I called out, trying to get her attention.

"Sup, Sam?" She asked, not facing me.

"What's wrong?" I asked her.

"I don't know," Liz said, looking away from the fire.

"Have you guys notice, how quiet it is?" Alice asked.

"Now, that you mention. Yeah it's," Liz said, looking at the interstate. I looked around and notice that all the car stopped.

"Guys, I think there is something else going on," I said, looking very closely at the interstate.

"Like what?" Ben said.

"AHHH!" all of us screamed besides Ben.

"God damn, Ben," I said, holding my hand over my heart.

"Sorry but that was to easy," He smirk.

"Well back to what you were saying, Sam," Liz got everyone to focus on me.

"I think something serious is going on. We should get going," I said, looking at all of them.

"But where?" Alice asked.

"Well, if my hunch is right somewhere safe and hard to get in," I said, thinking of places that match my description.

"Walmart, the mall," Liz started to list.

"Jail," Ben added. Everyone chuckled but me.

"I'm serious," I said, looking at my phone.

"But why?" Ben asked.

"Look at the interstate. Tell what do you see?" I asked them, making my way towards the house.

"That none of the cars are moving," Alice stated.

"Exactly but why aren't  they moving?" I asked, making my way inside.

"Sam, what are you doing?" Liz asked.

"Getting things that we might need," I said, grabbing a cooler and some suitcases.

"Okay, let's get packed up and start going before whatever cause the cars on the interstate to stop to come here," I said, quickly packing things in. About thirty minutes later, we got everything that we needed packed up. I made my way to my black Chevy Impala from 1967.  I popped the trunk and put the stuff inside. I close the trunk and got the car started. Ben and Alice took the back seat as for Liz and I took the front. I started to drive off down the road.

~Hour later

We just made it into the city. I kept focusing on the road, pulling off the interstate and onto the off ramp.

"SAM!" I slammed on the breaks. I looked at everyone to make sure they were okay.

"What the hell is that?" Liz said, pointed at something moving in the bushes.

"I don't know and frankly I don't care," I said, pressing on the gas pedal and took off. I looked for a place to set up for the night. I heard the radio go on.

"There has been sighting of the undead. I take precautions when dealing with them. AHHHHH!" We all heard and then the broadcast ended.

"We got to find a safe place and lay low," I said, looking around.

"How about there," Ben pointed out a weapon shop that was connected to a grocery store.

"Good eye," Alice said, high fiving him. I pulled up to the stores. I parked the car.  I got out with Liz behind me. I looked through the window to see anything.  It looks like nobody tried to get in.

"Stand back," Liz said. I backed up. Liz kicked down the door, like a FBI agent. I looked around to make sure nobody was here. I made my way to the back room and still nothing until a heard a moan.

"Liz, gun," I whispered, holding my hand out for a gun. Liz place the gun in my hand. I made sure there was bullets  and that it was off of safety. I slowly open the door revealing  the owner. I saw that he was not a person anymore. I pulled the trigger seeing his body flopped to the ground. I shot him again making sure he was dead.  I pulled him out towards the back and burn the body.  I walked back in.

"Why did you shoot him?! " Alice screamed, slamming the car door.

"Because he was bitten," I said, calmly.  She turn away from me. I sighed and looked towards Liz, who was shock, "What?"

"I just can't believe that this is happening?" Alice muttered.

"Well, at least we know what to do during this situation," Ben said, leaning on the door.

"Yeah. Okay we need to get something to reinforce the doors and windows and some fences," I said, looking at everyone. 

"I'll go with ya," Liz said, raising her. I smiled.

"Okay let's go," I said, "Alice, Ben hold down the fort," I said, pulling out of the parking lot.

"So, where are we going to get the supplies," Liz asked.

"Um... Low's maybe,"I said, looking towards Liz.

"Right," Liz muttered, cleaning a knife.

"What's wrong?" I asked, looking towards the road.

"Nothing really," She said. I sighed. We pulled up to Low's. I got out of the car and look towards Liz.

"Okay, let's get going," I said, walking to the store. Everything was abound and soundless, "We should be extremely careful. We don't know, who or what is out here with us," I whispered.

"Got it, sweetheart," Liz said, walking slowly towards the door. I rolled my eyes and followed her. We made it to the door and slowly opened them. We got inside and started to look around for metal sheets, chains,  fence,  and electrical fence. I was walking down the isle and found dog food. I decided to grab three or four bags when I heard a growl. I looked down  the isle and so a German Shepard standing there. I whistle for it. It slowly made it way towards me. I looked down to see it was abound it here.

"Liz," I called for her. I heard footsteps running towards me.

"What going on?" She asked, looking around to see any danger.

"What do you think about a guard dog?" I asked, raising an eyebrow.

"Sure why not," Liz shrugged.

"Did you find the other stuff that we needed?" I asked placing all the dog food in a cart or two.

"Yeah," She said, helping me with the dog and it's food.

"You know we going to need a name for it," I suggested.

"How about, Million," Liz said, looking at him.

"Million, it is," I said, loading him into the car. Liz and I went back inside to get the supplies that we originally came here for. We loaded up and head back to our base camp, for now, home.

"Sorry guys, it took long but we picked a dog," I smiled.

"It's fine but did you guys get the stuff we need," Ben asked, hanging his arms over Alice.

"Yeah now time to get set up and we also grabbed a genitor," Liz said, already started unloading the car.

"Man, you guys got a lot of stuff. How did you get into the car?" Ben asked.

"Magic," I stated, helping Liz to unload. After a good twenty minutes or so, we finally got everything out. We started to build up the windows, the doors, and started to make the fence. About two hours we where done.

"It's getting dark," Ben said, looking up at the sky.

"Yeah," Alice said. I nodded, putting my car into a little hiding spot that was on the inside of the fence.

"Is about a sixty foot fence, plus electric fence on it. Nothing should be able to get inside," Liz said, crossing her arms.   

"You are right about that," I said, leaning on the door of our camp.
